Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a door-stop device for vehicles comprising a tie-rod having two opposite sliding surfaces equipped with at least one retention seat, a supporting frame having a through opening through which the tie-rod extends, and two opposed retention elements carried by the supporting frame and pressed by an elastic force against said sliding surfaces and designed to engage said at least one retention seat for withholding the tie-rod with respect to the supporting frame in at least one position of stable retention, wherein said retention elements are made, integrally with the supporting frame, of a single material and are connected to the supporting frame by means of connection portions elastically deformable and integral with the retention elements and with the supporting frame.
  • the supporting frame is generally fixed to the door of a vehicle, and one end of the tie-rod is articulated to an upright of the body of the vehicle about an axis parallel to or coinciding with the axis of articulation of the door.
  • the movement of opening and closing of the door produces a relative movement of the tie-rod with respect to the supporting frame.
  • the retention elements carried by the supporting frame slide on the tie-rod and engage one or more retention seats of the tie-rod to define one or more stable positions of retention of the door.
  • EP-A-525268 describes a door-stop device for vehicles comprising a tie-rod having an outer surface provided with at least one retention seat, and a supporting frame having a chamber and a passage opening, through which the tie-rod extends. Housed within the chamber of the supporting frame are two opposed retention bodies and elastic means that push the retention bodies elastically against opposite sliding surfaces of the tie-rod.
  • the supporting frame is formed by a base body and by a lid, both of which are made of stamped metal plate.
  • EP-A-2011940 filed in the name of the present applicant describes a door-stop device in which the supporting frame comprises a hollow base body provided with an opening insertion inside it of retention bodies and of elastic means, and a lid fixed to the base body for closing said opening.
  • the base body and the lid are both made of plastic material and are provided with coupling means including a groove surrounding the insertion opening and a complementary engagement formation that inserts into said groove.
  • GB-A-2411206 discloses a vehicle door check comprising a restraining mechanism which includes sliders connected to the case by integral webs.
  • the sliders are biased by rubber springs or coil springs.
  • JP-A-2001 105863 discloses a door-stop device according to the preamble of claim 1, including a case and a checker integrally formed by a synthetic resin with high resilience.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a door-stop device of the type referred to above that will be simpler, more economically advantageous, and constituted by a smaller number of components as compared to door-stop devices of a known type.
  • said object is achieved by a door-stop device having the characteristics forming the subject of Claim 1.
  • the door-stop device 10 comprises a supporting frame 12 designed to be fixed to a door of a vehicle, a tie-rod 14, and a support 16 for articulating one end of the tie-rod 14 to an upright of the body of a vehicle.
  • the tie-rod 14 is preferably constituted by a monolithic body made of injection-moulded plastic material.
  • the tie-rod 14 at a first end has an articulation hole 18 that serves for articulation of the tie-rod 14 to the support 16 ( Figure 1 ) by means of a pin 20.
  • the tie-rod 14 can be provided with an integral stop head 22. The head might not be present; in this case, the tie-rod 14 would just have the function of positioning without participating in arrest of the door.
  • the tie-rod 14 has two sliding surfaces 24 opposite to one another, formed along which are two retention seats 26, 28 corresponding, respectively, to positions of door partially open and door completely open. On the sliding surfaces 24 there may or may not be present a layer of lubricant applied by means of greasing.
  • the tie-rod 14 has two thickened areas 30 set on opposite sides of the retention seat 26.
  • the thickened areas 30 are equipped with cavities 32 that enable an elastic deformation of the sliding surfaces 24 in said thickened areas 30.
  • the cavities 32 are preferably constituted by through openings oriented in a direction orthogonal with respect to the axis of the articulation hole 18.
  • each damping element 34 has a cavity 36 that enables an elastic deformation of the material constituting the damping element 34 under the action of forces F directed parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tie-rod 14, as illustrated in Figure 5 .
  • the tie-rod 14 is constituted by a single body made of injection-moulded plastic material, comprising also the head 22 and the damping elements 34.
  • the supporting frame 12 is preferably constituted by a monolithic body made of injection-moulded plastic material.
  • the supporting frame 12 has a through opening 40 through which the tie-rod 14 extends.
  • the supporting frame 12 can be provided with metal screws 38, which serve for fixing the supporting frame 12 to the door of a vehicle.
  • the heads of the screws 38 can be co-moulded in the material constituting the supporting frame 12.
  • the supporting frame 12 could be provided with holes, within which the fixing screws 38 are inserted at the moment of assembly on the vehicle.
  • the supporting frame 12 has a through opening 40, through which the tie-rod extends 14.
  • the through opening 40 preferably has a quadrangular shape and is closed on four sides by the supporting frame 12.
  • Two mutually opposite retention elements 42 project on opposite sides into the through opening 40.
  • the retention elements 42 are made, integrally with the supporting frame 12, of a single material and are connected to the supporting frame 12 by means of elastically deformable connection portions 44 integral with the retention elements 42 and with the supporting frame 12.
  • cavities 46 are Formed between the retention elements 42 and the supporting frame 12 that enable an elastic movement of the retention elements 42 with respect to the supporting frame 12.
  • the retention elements 42 have rounded outer surfaces that are designed to slide on the opposite sliding surfaces 24 of the tie-rod 14. In conditions of rest the distance between the superposed faces of the retention elements 42 is equal to or less than the minimum thickness of the tie-rod 14. When the tie-rod 14 is inserted into the through opening 40, the retention elements 42 are pressed against the sliding surfaces 24 of the tie-rod 14 with an elastic force due in part to the elastic deformation of the connection portions 44 of the supporting frame 12 and in part to the elastic deformation of the thickened portions 30 of the tie-rod 14, formed in which are the cavities 32.
  • the elastic force that pushes the retention elements 42 against the sliding surfaces 24 is determined by sizing of the cavities 46 and 32 and the thicknesses of the connection portions 44 and of the thickened portions 30.
  • the elastic behaviour of the material constituting the supporting frame 12 and the tie-rod 14 intrinsically supplies the elastic force that serves to push the retention elements 42 elastically against the sliding surfaces 24, without the need for auxiliary elastic components.
  • the supporting frame 12 has a front surface 48, upon which the head 22 of the tie-rod 14 comes to bear in the position of door completely open.
  • the damping elements 34 provided on the head 22 dampen the impact of the head 22 against the supporting frame 12 in the case where the door is swung open, and enable damping of the impact of the head 22 against the supporting frame 12.
  • the door-stop device according to the present invention is made up of just three components: the supporting frame 12, the tie-rod 14, and the support 16. Said components are assembled in a simple and fast way.
  • the device according to the present invention avoids the operations necessary for assembly of retention elements and elastic elements as components separate from the supporting frame 12.
  • Figure 9 illustrates a variant in which the supporting frame 12 is entirely made of metal.
  • the supporting frame 12 is formed by an elastic steel plate bent so as to form a fixing base 50 provided with a through opening 40 and two elastic branches 52, which bear respective shaped portions 54 that form the retention elements 42.
  • the ends 56 of the shaped portions 54 constitute the surface of arrest upon which the head 22 of the tie-rod 14 is to come to bear in the condition of maximum opening of the door.
  • the screws 38 can be welded to the base 50 or else can be inserted in holes of the base 50 at the moment of fixing of the frame 12 on the vehicle.
